Starting on a bustling market place in Delhi, the journey takes us through India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. In India, we participate in Varanasi’s daily Hindu ritual Ganga Aarti, and visit its largest mosque in Delhi. In Nepal, we observe monumental Hindu temples and stroll through the markets, getting to know spice traders and the oldest active potter in Bhaktapur. From the cold high mountain region of the Himalayas we travel south to warmer climes. We head to Sri Lanka, the island of Buddhism. We take a breathtaking train route through the Central highlands, stroll through the largest growing region for tea, and end our journey in front of one of the world’s tallest monuments: the impressive Ruwanwelisaya Stupa.
